>We seem to have a high percentage of conspiracy theorists compared to other countries

We've been lied to by our institutions too many times.

The reason I don't buy into BD911, or we didn't land on the moon, is because the conspiracy would be too hard to execute.

It sure isn't that the government has earned the benefit of the doubt.

Information on marine biomass decline from recent ipcc report: "Global models also project a loss in marine biomass (the total weight of all animal and plant life in the ocean) of around -6% (±4%) under SSP1-2.6 by 2080-99, relative to 1995-2014. Under SSP5-8.5, this rises to a -16% (±9%) decline. In both cases, there is “significant regional variation” in both the magnitude of the change and the associated uncertainties, the report says." phytoplankton in particular is projected to decline by ~10% in worst-case emissions scenario, zooplankton- by 15%.

We know already that IBS is a functional health disorder. It is caused by poor mental health. That doesn't mean the symptoms aren't real. But it does mean that they can be dramatically improved by working on mental health.

I mean, extreme pain, bloating and having problems in the bathroom that doesn’t have an easily recognized cause, which means no real possibility of it stopping, would cause most people anxiety and depression, which then contributes to the unaliving ideation, but it’s nice that they’re actually acknowledging that there’s a problem!

China leads the world in fossil fuel consumption. Including being the top producer and consumer of lignite, the dirtiest type of coal, and they are building new coal plants every year. China was the biggest emitter of carbon dioxide (CO₂) emissions in 2021, accounting for nearly 31 percent of the global emissions. Don't fall for their greenwashig.
